We’re here with another Tuesday Bluesday and we’ve got a great, eclectic blues lineup for you starting with blues from the bayou.

Here’s your Tuesday Bluesday lineup:

9:00 a.m. The Best of Louisiana Blues: Various Artists

We head to the bayou for some music from Ray Charles, Lillian Glinn, Slim Harpo, Ray Brown, Fats Domino, Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown, Rodney Harris, Roosevelt Sykes, Shirley & Lee, Papa Lightfoot, Guitar Slim, Annie Laurie, Fats Matthews, Big Joe Turner, Big Boy Myles, Little Walter, Mary Butler, Erline Harris, Dave Bartholomew, Marcia Ball, Allen Toussaint, Dr. John, Professor Longhair, the Neville Brothers, Irma Thomas and more!

4:00 p.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of James Cotton NEW!

Today we give props to a great bluesman and blues harp player in James Cotton, a man who was also in demand as a player on others’ albums and who began his musical career playing blues harp for Howlin’ Wolf.

8:00 p.m. Tedeschi Trucks Band Live at The Orpheum Theater, Madison, WI, March 18, 2015

This is, without a doubt, the biggest, baddest blues band on the planet with two of the greatest at the helm in Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks. Make no mistake about it, if I were still doing big venue shows, they would be the first I attend. But I’m not. I’m not sure they could fit in a small venue, but if they could, I’d be there.

Here we go, people. It’s another Tuesday Bluesday and we’re ready to go. While I’m toiling in the bowels of retail hell until the afternoon, The Music Mermaid will be guiding you through the musical maze. The button’s below.
